I'm Back

Well I haven't blogged in a while. I have been working nights and still recovering from surgery so I took a mental break. I continued to read my Bible, but stopped reading just about everything else. I didn't write anything and just shut down some. It was a good mental vacation, but I missed writing, so I'm back. I want to share a few things I learned during my time away.

First, I have found I have a deep craving for wisdom. I have been reading and re-reading Proverbs in an attempt to gain wisdom. I have prayed for wisdom and really begun to think about who I spend time with. I crave wise mentors in my life and need to make a strong effort to be with those who are wise.

I am learning patience. I struggle with feeling hopeless about my desire for vocational ministry. I felt called into vocational ministry since I was 16, spent 20 years working and preparing and then it seemed one day is was gone. There are some days I feel like that life is gone, that I will never again be in vocational ministry. People love to tell me that I just need to be in ministry where I am. That's called being a Christian, of course I do ministry where I am. Vocational Ministry is different all together, and I miss it a great deal. I must continue to be patient and see what God has in store for me. It's not easy.

I am learning to take each day as it comes. There is value in planning and preparation, but the best laid plans do often go astray. I am trying to put my focus in where I am and what I'm doing. When I'm at work, I focus on work, and I try to do the same at home. It's not always easy, I want to focus on all the things I need to do and all the things I have to do and all the things I want to do. Lots of distractions that I'm trying to cut out.

Now that I'm back, I hope to blog more. I have a few reviews to write and some things I want to share. I hope you'll join me as I begin my writing adventure again. I've missed sharing with you.
